That's the question they're asking -- albeit in a flawed way, IMO. "Is there a relationship between psychopathy and programming language, phone selection, sex, age, etc?"

They've packaged some pretty standard questions (probably) based on DSM IV criteria that they think will tell them how psychopathic the survey responder is, then they're going to correlate that data with the demographic information at the bottom to say: "Look, Android/iPhone users are, on average, eleventy percent more psychotic than iPhone/Android users!"

It will be dumb, and only people who repost stupid text-on-image-wisdom stuff to their Facebook wall will believe it has any bearing on reality.
